Spartan Fit Test

Are You Spartan Fit?

Our Spartan Fit Test takes into consideration how many burpees you can do in five minutes, and how fast you can run 1.5 miles.

The answers to these questions will tell you which workout level to select when doing our Spartan Workout of the Day.

How many burpees can you do in five minutes? How fast can you run 1.5 miles?

The burpee test is a bit truer, we’ll be honest. Dr. H.P Burpee designed the burpee to test fitness, in fact. It’s a great tool with which to express your VO2 MAX. But if you are an experienced runner, and feel that will be a better measure of your fitness, we’ve included 1.5 mile time trial splits to determine your fitness level. You should do both, and if you have a huge divergence between your two scores, average them out, or pick the LOWER of the two tests.
